Hello 🙂
Here is our first Monday Message of the school year- LET’S GO!
Monday Messages will give you a glimpse into the week. I will send other emails/text reminders throughout the week, as needed.
CALENDAR:
A FEW THINGS:
1. What a great week back in the building together. There is nothing like that first week excitement 🙂 Things are off and rolling!
2. Car Drop Off and Pick Up Reminders
-Drop Off:
*Please do not have children exit cars until 7:30am when our staff members come outside. The kids cannot stand outside unattended.
*Pull all the way up… whether that is pulling all the way up to Ms. S for the Connector Drop Off or pulling all the way up to the end of the sidewalk on the Emmaus Side. Even if there are no cars behind you, please pull all the way up.
-Pick Up:
*No cars should move until released by the staff member. We need to make sure all kids are loaded in the cars before there is movement.
Thank you for keeping our kids safe!
3. On Friday, the staff and students participated in our Bee Statement Stations throughout the school. Led by our awesome 7th and 8th graders, classes transitioned around the campus (hallway, playground, stairs, etc.), and we talked about expectations at each location. The big kids demonstrated what not to do (hilarious) and what to do at each spot. It was a great refresher for all of us. BEEEEE respectful, responsible, safe, and a problem solver!
4. Mass Update– Because St. Christopher Church is undergoing renovations, we are changing up our Mass plan for a few weeks. Each week, a priest will visit our school to speak on a variety of topics with our kids (Mass etiquette, prayer, etc.). Students will be divided into grade level groups to tailor the discussions. We are excited for these talks and anxiously wait when we can get back in the church.
5. Our Bible Verse for the year is Psalm 16:8 “I keep the Lord always before me; with him at my right hand, I shall never be shaken.”
6. Please note that scrambled eggs have been taken off the school lunch menu to accommodate a severe egg allergy in the building. Thank you for your understanding and for keeping our kids safe!
7. I will be sending a Uniform Email later this afternoon. Please be sure to give that a read.
